The aim of this cadaveric biomechanical study was to compare the strength of the standard perimeter plating with that of the percutaneous screw configuration for a Sanders type-2B calcaneus fracture. Materials and Methods: Ten pairs of fresh-frozen cadaveric lower limbs were prepared and osteotomized to create a Sanders type-2B fracture. Of each pair, one specimen underwent open reduction and internal fixation with standard perimeter plating; the other was stabilized with the percutaneous screw configuration. Each foot was compressed axially via the talar dome (1 mm\/sec) until failure occurred. Differences in treatment groups were analyzed for significance ( p &lt; 0.05) using paired t-tests. Results: Construct stiffness was 158 \u00b1 85 and 113 \u00b1 60 N\/mm for the plate and percutaneous fixation, respectively ( p = 0.18). Failure occurred at an average of 1156 \u00b1 513 and 1064 \u00b1 540 N for the plate and percutaneous construct, respectively ( p = 0.65). Conclusion: The results suggest that open reduction and internal fixation with percutaneous screw configuration for Sanders type-2B calcaneus fractures provides a strength similar to that of perimeter plating. Clinical Relevance: Percutaneous screw fixation of calcaneus fractures may provide fracture reduction similar to plate fixation. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3113\/fai.2008.0931","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,9,9]],"date-time":"2008-09-09T01:06:49Z","timestamp":1220922409000},"page":"931-935","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":46,"title":["Percutaneous Screw Configuration versus Perimeter Plating of Calcaneus Fractures: A Cadaver Study"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"29","author":[{"given":"Jonathan P.","family":"Smerek","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Baltimore, MD"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anish","family":"Kadakia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Baltimore, MD"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stephen M.","family":"Belkoff","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Baltimore, MD"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Trevor A.","family":"Knight","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Baltimore, MD"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mark S.","family":"Myerson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Baltimore, MD"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Clifford L.","family":"Jeng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Baltimore, MD"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,9,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-FAI.2008.0931","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005131-199701000-00008"},{"key":"bibr2-FAI.2008.0931","first-page":"360","volume":"19","author":"Bajammal S","year":"2005","journal-title":"J.
